Debugging the event loop and other things in gdb

[Ruben Safir <ruben mrbrklyn com>]

I'm wondering how I can trace and debug the gtk event object or some of 
the built in constructors.

 1 #include "onewindow.h"
  2 #include <iostream>
  3 #include <gtkmm/stock.h>
  4
  5 Onewindow::Onewindow()
  6         :m_button(Gtk::Stock::OK) //Create a new button on 
initialization line
  7 {
  8         
//m_button.add_pixlabel("/usr/local/share/gtk-gnutella/pixmaps/download.xpm","cool 
button");
  9
 10         set_title("Pixeled Button");
 11         set_border_width(18);
 12        
 13         //connect signal when button clicked
 14         m_button.signal_clicked().connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this,
 15                                 &Onewindow::clicked));
 16
 17         //pack the button into the window
 18         add(m_button);
 19
 20         //show the widget
 21         show_all_children();
 22 }

I want to debug and trace line 5 and 6 for example here, but ddd won't 
enter the Button constructor.
